The different sizes depend on thesocial funtion and organitation, sothe global shape is directlyinfluenced by the social activities.

There is a degradation from thefields to the mountains wich isdirectly proportional to the publicand private spaces. The differentlevels are connected by a verticalpublic street that changes dependingon the different floor uses.

Mountain continuity.The triangulated cover provides the

mountain continuity so that there is adirect comunication between the valley andthe mountain that covers al the different

program.

Holes.The differents holes perforating the greencover provide direct light to underneathplazas and therefore life.

Focus Point: Train station

Green path.One main part of the cover are the greenpaths. They are incharged of the continuity.

Perforated path.This path also provides the continuity butis perforated so that indirect light canreach the underneath plazas generating anew kind of atmosphere.

Mountain paths.The rooftops of the single houisng units

end up being a path that connect bothvalleys at each side of the 700m main

mountain.

Light indicators.The different shutter display work as aprogram indicator. They absorb light duringthe day and in the night through out a lightcolor system the different program inside isrevealed so that citizens know from theoutside which uses are available.

Single housing.They work as capsules one nextto another that change size to

adapt the different family needs.

Public street.

Connector program.

Vertical public street.They are the main point of the

towers and they work as a streetthat connects the different

programs inside them.

Base program.There exists a net of public program that

works as a transition between thecommercial plazas and the towers that end

up on the housing on top the mountain.

In this net is directly proportional to theplazas that it surrounds so thta cinemas

plazas and other kind are created.

Colective housing.Group housing works asdifferentapartments that sharecommonuses.

Industrial plaza.These type of plazas, that differfrom inside plazas, work as an inflatedground where all the industry staysunderneath the 0 level.

Crop field.The crops create a transition from theactual fiel to the centrality. They are thebigger program size that we can find incontrast to the single housing units.

Streets.They connect the pre-existing roads tothe new train station centrality.

The size degradation from the fields to the mountains, which is directly proportional to the public andprivate spaces, is one of the main ideas but the vertical street, also plays an important role. Differentday and night activities, which generate a safe and activated promenade along the street, keep mixingwith the tower's private and common areas sewing a sponge tapestry of uses.

Public space is generated by the reticule and is defined by very clear limits; in three of its sides thereis the reticule, which is the principal generator of the plaza, and the fourth one by the crops. It shouldalso be accessible to all citizens, satisfy our needs and it will provide human contact and relation as acontemplation space.

There will exist two main accesses between the crops that will make easier the entrance of pedestrianand bicycles. Meanwhile, cars and motor vehicles have access to these public spaces throw the parkingenabled in the ground floor of the building. This way there is a direct connection between the motorwayand the train station, the focus of the centrality.
